pipkins Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Bit too long for most posters on here, but another well detailed report into situation here. No article these days it seams has to mention fascism. Lets hope the middle class can call upon some semblence of education soon, recognise they are a small minority, been used by a power crazed megalomaniac. and more to the center Those who are framed as “The Enemy Within” were being dehumanized, threatened to leave the country, verbally attacked and physically destroyed. Internal conflicts were exported by constantly blaming and attacking outsiders. As this cannot be done without violence, fascism idealizes the use of force, and glorifies the purification through war. http://asiapacific.anu.edu.au/newmandala/2014/01/21/middle-class-rage-threatens-democracy/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantareiyingluck Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Since I loose great amount of orders because of the turmoil I thought good to check Asoke junction today to have a look for myself. Around 11.00 am. A music band playing to loud music. Less then 100 Riot Sissies hanging around doing nothing but sitting on a plastic sheet. Street vendor with T shirts. And the whole junction closed/blocked. This is ONLY possible in Thailand. If this idiotery goes on I have to release my staff from their jobs......a banner said: "if you rob the country it is called democracy. If we protest it is called we damage the economy". Yes Suthep. You damage the economy. And even more serious: people who want to bring out their votes, your intention is to obstruct them doing so? By barricading poll booths? The roots of democracy lie in that people can express their will with a pencil. You are going to avoid that with your Sissies? Pretty sure Obama has a strong opinion about you. And more important things to do. The 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But please go ahead and start comparing this clown with Nelson Mandela. The human right abuse is soooo severe under the Thaksin regime. Protesters have to sit on the tarmack!

Popular Post Credo Posted January 25, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 25, 2014 I hope that Obama takes the time to answer. He should tell Suthep that he takes his concerns very seriously and that he will call Yingluck and ask her to come to the Whitehouse for consultations right away. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipkins Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 More from Sutheps peaceful protestest. http://asiapacific.anu.edu.au/newmandala/2014/01/25/bangkoks-last-red-shirt-fortress/ The beaten up garbage collector who had plastic melted on him and was tortured for hours is making the news still. Thats one week on. His picture was circulated and commented on as proof of Sutheps fascist lies. Violence seems to be coming only from one side dosn't it. Didin't make mention of any intervention or complaint by Human Rights Watch either. Too poor for them to be interested. So... Campain underway now against HRW Thailand. Red Cross already openly condemned the idiot Dr's flying their flag. Lets see if the morons at HRW can be called to account in the real media that exists outside Thailand. I also Saw PNB Bank had been fed propaganda by one of their staff. Reported This is the first policacl strife in our country .. amongst other thing.s What this is telling us is that the rest of the world are just not buying the MIddle class assertion that thay are educated. We are seeing them in the spotlight more and more for the Elitist clique they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seminomadic Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Suthep forgot to explain the bit about stopping candidate registration and the printing of ballot forms. He also forgot to mention the time that he was the de facto PM while Chinese Prince Abhisit was de juris. So he's telling the truth when he says Thailand was governed "by a combination of tyranny, corruption, bribery, theft, and a complete disregard for human rights". That stretch included his handiwork. I'm sure he's mended his ways completely by now. You know how drastically men tend to change between ages 60 and 64. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirk0233 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I will argue that Thai citizens are morally responsible to rise up and demand removal of both Yingluck and the influence of Thaksin, then define and implement the reform necessary to ensure that the Kingdom of Thailand remains free from unjust and corrupt leaders in the future Shouldn't Suthep have some plan as to how he is going to remove corruption from Thailand, or do we just have to have faith in him and his unwritten plan? If so, then this whole movement is based strictly on emotion, since plainly reason has nothing to do with it and the miracle plan, like the 10 commandments will be delivered to the people when God has spoken to Suthep and the Thaksin clan is removed. Apparently any of the other corruption that is found in the military, the police, the courts etc. is not on the Suthep's agenda for cleansing. Clearly Thaksin is corrupt, as is Suthep; so why is only Thaksin attacked and not Suthep? Primarily because of the influence of an important man who felt Thaksin was becoming more popular than him. Apparently he has a huge ego and cannot tolerate coming in second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipkins Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 BTW. http://www.hrw.org/contact/confirmation So angry was I with HRW thailand not reporting on the violence from the protestors I got onto their offices and sent them 10 links to reputable media. Fingers crossed that the little elitist oik has questions to answer. soon. Non-violent my backside. There were no links to Bluesky or Nation, but I think they can gain a better picture by taking these outlets seriously. Thaivisa is more balanced these days. they could do worse than to look on here for a consensus. Also BP OP Eds are all taking a hiding on the yellow side. Think the wind of change is sweeping through there. About time Seems like some of the smarter BKKians know the game is up and want a place in the new real world that will follow when this coup fails. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just over a month ago we were talking about the validity of claims 6 million were in the streets, now we are debating whether they exceed 1000. Its over. The Dems forced the government to call an election then <deleted> up by not taking part in the said election.
